Yes I have heard of it, but have never taken part - no one near me runs it as a class sadly - Jakey would love it. It is a big event at Crufts too, really exciting for the dogs and good fun to watch

I'd love to see Buddy do that, but can't imagine training him. He sends mixed messages about retrieving balls.
If I throw a ball, he loves to go get it - and bring it back to about 3 feet from me, or run past me with it. Then he sets it down and looks at me. It's like he doesn't want to give it to me because I'll throw it again, but if I have the ball he won't let me out of his sight until I throw it so he can run and get it - which he seems to really enjoy. So I can't make sense of his response - does he like this game or not? It makes me tired just watching those dogs, lol! They sure look like they're having (I can't help myself...) "a ball".

We have a dog fair each summer at our fair, and they run flyball, I just can't stand all the over stimulation, the dogs mostly border collies are absolutely crazy... I much prefer the agility, as the dogs are on their own and they don't have the dog running right next to them.
